    Found the last coin that I need for my collection. Couple of catalogs seem to suggest that I should be able to do it at a certain price but the reality is, it is a lot tougher than I expected. Coins are bent, damaged etc but even so, trying to upgrade them is difficult.

    Here are the photos:

    1893 - severely damaged but it is 1893 1 fun

    1895 - 2 char variety

    3 char variety - scarer variety

    1896 - unfortunately bent

    The 1896 1 fun coin is supposed to be a key date coin but I find the 1893 1 fun coin to be suprisingly difficult as well. Most common being 1892 and 1895 2 character variety. Took me two good years to hunt them down which is a bit surprising as the catalog value for them seems to be rather undervalued.
